Michael's Jaguars Fan Site

Hi everyone, my name is Michael Cowles and welcome to my website. As you can see I am a huge Jacksonville Jaguars Fan. I'm not from Flordia, but still hold the team close to my heart. We my brother and I first started realy watching NFL football, was about the time the NFL came out with two new expansion teams. The Jaguars, and the Carolina Panthers. My brother lives in North Carolina now, so guess which team he follows. Ever since then I have been a loyal Jacksonville Fan.

Things Jacksonville need to improve on!!

• Offensive Line: The offensive line for the Jaguars went through a tough year this year. Prior to the seasons start Richard Collier was shot 14 times and paralyzed. Along with that, one line man was out for the season during preseaso games, and two more were injured during the Jaguars first season game, knocking both out for the season. Jacksonville need to get its players health and drift good young talent to rebuild there line during the upcoming off season.
• Defensive Line: The defense for Jacksonville has been tough over the last few season, however this year turned out different. With the release of Marcus Stroud during the off season, the Jaguars came in with a weaker front 4. The addition of two rookie defensive ends didn't help things but is preparing for the future. The team needs to get some young good defensive line men in the early rounds of the draft and fans need to be patient for the young talent on the D to develop.
• Secondary: Has been good in Jacksonville for many years now, but that is one thing it has to much of, years. The secondary is getting old, and hasn't be infused with young talent it needs. While receivers on other teams are getting faster every year, the secondary for the Jaguars are just getting slower. Like most of the defensive the secondary needs an injection of new blood to start the rebuilding process.

• Key Players:
• Quarterback: David Garrad : Was coming into 2008 of a great 2007 season and a large contract deal with Jacksonville over the offseason. Garrad had more turnovers, and less touchdowns this year than he did in 07. I contribute this to the loses the offensive line took early in the season. Garrad was sacked or hurried often during games.
• Runningback: Maurice Jones Drew: Is the future in the running back position for the Jaguars. He is taking over for an aging Fred Taylor that has given everything to the team since it was created. Jones Drew is a small man with a great heart and desire. He had troubles running the ball this year mainly due to the injuries to the offensive line which resulted in a lack of blockers. I look for him to bounce back next year as the line improves.
• Widereciever: Matt Jones: Was the teams leading reciever in yards, and catches. He has been Garrads go to guy all year and has been successful. Jones has gotten himself into some off the field issues with some drug charges. He is serving a three game suspension this season, and future actions are unclear. If he returns to the Jaguars in 09 he will be a welcomed sight.
